I went to have my septum pierced. The receptionist must have been having a bad day. The piercing artist did correctly pierce my nose, however; the care instructions she gave me involved cleaning the piercing directly with Dial Gold soap. Every bit of information I can find on the piercing says otherwise, including from other piercing artists in the area. She told me "When the light green pus turns to crust, it's healing." but since I stopped washing it with Dial, I have had no problems with said pus. I went to Tat2Tyme to have it swapped out, and will be going back there for anything else I need in this vein.

So far they've been great. I've been here for 2 stretchings (lobes). I will probably go to them when I finally decide to get started on my first ink also.

I absolutely LOVE this place. Never been disappointed. I’ve got my cartilage and nose done here 2 times and going back soon for the 3rd; the reason for the three times is my fault for taking out to early, seems like I’d know by now I know lol, but they’re very very clean and very very sweet people! I highly recommend them you will not be disappointed, I promise you! ❤️ Look their art up on tattoos, they’re work is beautiful on that as well, I will have them do my first if I decide to get one!

Awesome place to go to if you're looking for a tattoo or piercing. I've gotten the several of my piercings done here and they have always come out perfect and healed wonderfully. I recently got a cover-up done by Colin Thrift and I am absolutely in love with it. A week after getting the cover and its healing great. Going back in a week to get started on some more ink by him!

A few months back Colin did my husband and mine matching cross tattoo on our ring finger and my wrist tattoo. Then this Wednesday he did a tattoo that is very special to my heart. Back in January I had a miscarriage and I got a tattoo on my shoulder as a resemblance of my baby with me always. Thanks for the wonderful work you did. I will be recommending you to everyone I know and will be back for more later on.

Hello everyone, I'm an artist here at Artistic Addictions and have been noticing a lot of 1 star reviews happening in the last week or two and have done research on other shops in the area and have noticed a trend. The trend being that a local shop on Greenbrier Dear Road and/or friends/family of that local shop have been making fake profiles in order to leave fake reviews, not just on us, but 3 other shops in the area as well. Now we understand that not everyone is going to be happy and we respect your thoughts. We like to use those reviews as a tool to see what we can change and do better. We have flagged those certain reviews and have sent them forward to Google and hopefully they will fix the issue at hand. Thank you for your time.

Don't even waste your time going here if there is an Alabama or auburn foot ball game on. They will literally refuse service or over charge you. The artist is rude. The receptionist was great though, She was just doing her job. I went to tattoo time in sax and got the same tattoo I was going to get here for almost 200$ cheaper and not to mention amazing quality. Moral of the story. If you like rude people who clearly don't give a shit about their customers then this is the place for you.
